Bronze sculpture "The Kiss" by Sime (2021), limited edition

About Sime: The painter and sculptor Sime, born in Croatian Gorica in 1968 as Mladen Simunovic, belongs to a young generation of artists who have long since considered the question of tradition and modernity. Rather, it can be seen in his sculptures that the "old" issues of art are far from exhausted for him: he can always gain new, refreshingly subjective perspectives. Sime, who went through an apprenticeship at the educational center for applied art and design (1985-1987) before studying the sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb (1988-1993), his sculptural work is happy to form on the basis of numerous preparatory drawings-a process in which it is supposed to be "formed", which is gradually "formed", which later " Hot wood or bronze plastic shape. His sculptures are particularly characterized by their clear forms and their reduced representation. The artist focuses entirely on the essential characteristics of his motifs and abstracts their characteristic features. The naturalness of the proportions always remains and the sculptures radiate dynamics and aesthetics. Sime has lived in Munich as a freelance sculptor and member of the professional association of visual artists in Munich since 1999. In Croatia he was awarded several art prices, most recently he had increased exhibitions throughout Germany.
